As is often the case with fish and chip shops, this place looks a little run down on the outside,…read morebut that's because they spend their money on the food. Excellent fish and chips at very reasonable prices. They also have a restaurant, which is ideal if you're watching the cricket and don't want to go to the pub.

Have to agree with the one other reviewers score of 1 star…read more Chips where greasy and soggy. The square piece of fish had the thickest batter I've ever seen with a massively pancakey taste. What fish there was was dry and oddly very grey looking. Couldn't finish it despite being hungry.

The flavour was as absent as my father throughout my entire life unfortunately. Service was kind and friendly. They do have a side restaurant-y bit but only used it to wait for the food before heading home.

Part of that is Howard's chip shop. I think (and I might be wrong) that I went to college with the original? owners daughter. Anyway, as the saying goes you should never go back. Should have taken the advice. It wasn't the worst portion of chips I've ever had (that accolade goes to a place in Sunderland) but it came in a very solid second. Mushy, greasy, tasteless...... get the picture? Portion size was adequate, just! but have to give the fryer 10/10 for cheek charging £1.70. Covent Garden charge £2 and you get twice the amount of (edible) chips. Possibly this par for the course in Taunton but they'd last 5 seconds in London. As I said shouldn't have gone back! Sad sad sad :(

Great fish n chips but shame they tried taking the old five pound note trick from me! Gave them a…read more£20 for £11.90 and got £3.10 back. When I queried my change the women made a joke of forgetting the £5 note. This is the oldest con in the book and very sad that counter staff try it on to local people. Best bit is I think she under charged me by about £3 when I got home and added it up. Perhaps they ought to try and charge properly rather than conning honest people, better luck with your next customers now everyone knows your con.
